Default Rules of Golf

There seems to be different views on The Villages "Green top" environmental golf hazard areas. I've always taken a stoke penalty to drop outside the green top hazard line. A recent playing partner informed me any shot in an environmental area is a free drop outside the hazard. I can't find any ruling on this in the Rules of Golf. Are the green tops posts covered under local rules and if so what are they?
